If red light is replaced by blue light in single slit diffraction then
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
The correct answer is Option (2) → diffraction bands become narrower
The position of diffraction minima (or dark fringes) is given by the condition -
$a\sin θ=nλ$
$∴λ↓∝θ↓$ [θ → Angle of Diffraction]
Hence, it results in smaller values of θ, so the fringe become close together.
